#Chapter2

Orion

I sit in the lawn chair in the front yard and watch as several members of my father’s pack carry my belongings into the house. As punishment for being the second born son, I am being forced to go to college. He wants me to learn business, so I can help my older brother when he ascends to alpha. I think he sent me here to keep me away, to keep me from my brother. If I do succeed, then fail later on, it would be easier to blame everything on me. My brother will be Alpha in a few months, me, I will just the alphas brother and nothing special to anybody. The only wolf that would actually love me, would be my future mate, who I haven’t found yet. I hope I find her soon.

This house I sit in front of was bought and paid for by my father and is smaller than I expected. He at least had the respect to hire some workers to move my belongings for me. Every once in a while, I give them shouts of encouragement as I pop open a beer and watch the hot girls walk by. After a few hours my best friend shows and sits into the chair next to me.

/"What’s up, Jester?/" I ask handing him a beer from the ice chest.

/"Nothing much,/" he answers while opening the bottle. /"I was just three fingers deep in a nice honey just a moment ago./" He swallows a big gulp of his beer and smiles. /"Oh look, there she is,/" he points while tapping me on the shoulder rapidly.

I look up and see a cute blonde she-wolf walking by, I haven’t had her yet. So, I decide she will be my next conquest.

/"You’re going to fuck her, aren’t you?/" he asks me.

I don’t answer him, instead I stare the girl down and gesture for her to come to me. She skips forward and stops in front of me. I lean back and look her up and down before looking to the house and then back to her. She giggles and runs into the house and I get up to fallow her. I look over to jester smiling and he rolls his eyes. I pick up the speed and I am about to reach the door before I am stopped dead in my tracks. My wolf Razor whimpers and he beckons me to now fallow the scent of honeysuckle and lilac. A faint scent, but still irresistible. A scent that has my wolf alert and my heart racing, it has to be my mate. I turn from the door and sprint in the direction the smell is coming from.

/"Where are you going?/" Jester yells from behind me. I could hear him laugh as I start to sprint off into the direction of the setting sun.

I run past countless werewolves and humans, hoping I don’t lose the track. I stop at a tree and sniff it. She must have placed her hand on it not too long ago, because the scent lingering is stronger. I continue my pursuit and Razor is getting very restless, he is very excited. I track the scent to the entrance of a freshman dorm and I hesitate before going through the threshold. At this point I slowly fallow the scent to the 3rd floor and right to the corner apartment.

I stand there with my hand raised to the knock on the door, but once more I hesitate.

/"Knock on the door,/" Razor begs. /"I want to see our mate./"

I can hear that she is asleep. I can hear her deeply breathing and a small snore escape from her mouth with each exhale. I don’t want to wake her, but I want to look into her eyes. I want to acknowledge my mate and so does my wolf. Temptation gets the better of me and I lightly tap my knuckles on the door. I am hoping it is enough to stir her awake, but not startle her awake. I don’t want us to get onto a bad start. The tapping of my knuckles didn’t wake her, so I try the knob and see that it is unlocked.

/"Alpha?/"

I turn my head to see a she-wolf standing before me. She is from my pack; her parents work as servants in the pack house.

I stare at her for a good 30 seconds trying to remember her name.

/"Jess,/" she says saving me the embarrassment. /"And that is my dorm room./"

I jump into her space. /"Do you know the girl, inside?/" I ask. /"She is my mate./"

/"Wow,/" Jess answers. /"I haven’t met her yet, and you’re already claiming dibs on my roommate./"

/"She is my mate,/" I say narrowing my eyes at her. I see her look away in submissiveness. /"Open the door, now./"

/"Yes Alpha,/" she answers dipping under me to get to the door.

She opens the door and the scent of honeysuckle and lilac hit me full force in the face, Razor howls. I walk into the room and spot her surrounded by unopened boxes, slumbering under a blanket on the small sofa in the corner. I walk up to her and take her in, her skin is pale underneath raven colored locks. The color of her lips is a natural coral pink, and I am tempted to lean down to kiss my sleeping beauty. I so want to look into her eyes, I want to know what color they are.

I lean closer and move a small bit of hair from her face to get a better look. I sigh, and her eyes flutter open. Razor howls again knowing she is our mate, she is so beautiful, and those eyes. I’ve never seen eyes like hers before. Her face turns to confusion like she can’t believe or know that I am her mate. I become confused, because I wasn’t expecting her reaction. I also wasn’t expecting her fist to fly through the air and hit me square in the eye.
